Emphasis in Family Studies

The Family Studies concentration is designed to meet the increasing demand for highly qualified persons to serve the multiple needs of families within a complex, technological society. The major objectives of the program are to: study human and family development from birth through adult age; prepare for professional careers related to working with families and individuals in both home, church, and community environments, while developing responsible adults with knowledge and skills for marriage, parenthood and social roles. If a student plans to pursue certification in family life education, consultation with the faculty adviser is recommended.
